Port Wine Staining Monks Heath

At Dr Sknn, we make use of the Lynton Lumina, a top-notch Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL), also employed by the NHS and private hospitals in the UK, to treat Port Wine Staining in a secure and efficient manner on skin types I-IV. By emitting light in certain wavelength ranges, we at Dr Sknn are able to target absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin, enabling the treatment of Port Wine Staining of different sizes and depths while causing little injury to the proximate skin. Subsequent to treatment, the damaged vessels are taken in by the body and very few traces of the initial lesion will remain.

At Dr Sknn, we utilise IPL to make the most of light energy. The light is taken up by the Port Wine Staining, which are heated to a level where they contract or become blocked, thus creating a seal. As time passes, the affected vessels are removed naturally by the body, leaving little evidence of the initial blemish.

At Dr Sknn, following an in-depth review of medical history, physical examination and photography, there is a chance to address any doubts, hopes, effects and queries one may have. Before treatment commences, any post-treatment advice, along with any risks related to the Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) process, will be discussed in full so that you are fully cognisant of them. Furthermore, if it is a novel area being treated, a modest patch test will be conducted to guarantee suitability.
